Preacher Doran Smythe

-Leader of the Clerics Regular, persistent humility in the face of near worship from his followers.

-Rumored to be a living Saint; now referred to by many as "St. Doran the Kind." However, his recent loss of confidence and lack of miracles has caused him to lose some traction. This indecisiveness has created tension within the Regulars that is moving toward a schism, led in part by Preacher Jharn.

-Believes that the Eternalites have chosen wealth over faith.

-Has survived numerous assassination attempts, and is in incredible health, and has a remarkable healing factor.

-Very humble, and tries to ignore assertions of his Sainthood to maintain his grounded perspective.

-Disliked by Witch-Breaker

-Officiated the Gubernatorial Wedding, though required the encouragement and wisdom of Preacher Enoch, who he seemed to look up to, in order to do so.

-Doran's miracles have been confirmed to be caused by intervention of the Philotes Device, prior to the capture of Solomon. Future miracles are intended to be facilitated by use of the Nemesis Device. Doran appears unaware of these circumstances.

I have chosen to tell Doran the truth about his miracles having been the result of a psyker's intervention. My decision was predicated on the reports of his loss of confidence in himself as a servant of the Emperor, and a belief that while the revelation would be initially painful, it would allow him to move past a perceived loss of ability.

Reports from Yvestina do indicate that he is improving, though the loss of Preacher Enoch dealt another significant blow to his spirit.
